Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics Review and Giveaway!--Ends June 7, 2011

You probably will be tempted to wear fewer cosmetics the hotter the temperatures soar to avoid makeup meltdown. I have the perfect solution to keep you looking fabulous but without all that heavy makeup that clogs your skin. Let me tell you about my experience with Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics and the light and airy feel of the products I tried.

Mineral cosmetics are really something to consider because they are created with hypoallergenic loose powder that naturally hydrates and heal skin without fillers such as mineral oil or FD & C colorings and preservatives that will cause skin eruptions. The main ingredients are Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxides that are a natural sunscreen SPF of 15, and Iron Oxides and Mica.

The first product I tried was their Mineral Foundation in Light Neutral. For such a sheer powder, I was amazed once I dusted it over my face what beautiful coverage it provided. The color choice was also just right for someone like myself with a light beige skin tone.

Next I reached for the Mineral Finishing Veil #1 Powder and applied some. To see how velvety my complexion looked shocked me, but this finishing powder made the foundation even better because my face looked practically flawless, not powdery in the least.

The Mineral Concealer in Light Champagne covered surprisingly well without settling into any fine creases. I usually spend more time with applying concealer, but I liked this one didn't require rubbing like the heavier tube or wand into my delicate under eye area. I just carefully dabbed some on with a small brush and saved me from tugging that skin.

I got four of OrchidBlue's eye shadows to play with. My eyes are dark brown and the ones I selected were in the purple family, shimmering jewels in each pot from smoky to bolder shades in Seductress, Reflections, Purple Haze, and Pandora. I wore them alone and then mixed them up a bit to create different effects, which were fun and pretty.

Another wonderful thing about dealing with Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics is that you can buy sample sizes to try out before buying a full product. Check their website and connect on Facebook because they have specials as well!

Trust me, you will love the selection of Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics as well as their accurate pictures for when you order. I know everything I requested looked the same way it did on screen and then when it arrived.

I think Orchid Blue Mineral Cosmetics gives you a terrific product at a bargain price from the items I experimented with. Why not give them a try? I know I'm eager to try lots more myself!

*Disclaimer: This is my own, honest opinion. No money was exchanged. All I received were free products so that I may make an opinion.*

I LOVE mineral foundation/powder. I love the way mineral eyeshadow goes on, but I find it doesn't last. But..I've only tried a couple brands, so I'd like to try Blue Orchid's, maybe I'll become a big convert!

I'd pick Peridot, Steel Blue, and Athena. I think! Or maybe Purple Haze, it seems like a neutral kind of purple that would be very wearable..They sure have a lot of interesting colours!
